Office romance, an alcoholic, an ex-boyfriend. If there are three things to avoid in dating, I met a man who checked every single one of those boxes. He suggested a casual, no-strings-attached relationship, but before I knew it, he was thrusting his raw sincerity at me. "Let's date deeply, heavily, and burdensomely." A man hiding a refreshing smile behind a decadent exterior, and a woman carrying a similar void behind her fiery personality. Starting out as a joke, two empty souls have become entangled. A relationship that offers destruction and salvation all at once. A connection that began lightly reaches unexpected depths, pulling them toward each other. Funny yet painful, painful yet funny again, An emotional romance as light as tissue and as heavy as a stone.
